dudacek Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 (edited) The leaky goals in the first matter when the breakdowns and bad bounces happen in the second. Jack will create at least one for us in the third. Hope we get two. Edited March 3, 2019 by dudacek 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. Him trying to catch a puck flung around the glass and bouncing off of him oddly while there are two men on him is him getting smoked. You guys are nuts.

Unless that first hits, it's a giant failure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampD Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 There were four othe Sabres watching that goal happen not covering someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Botterill chose him in that trade, as opposed to the other couple of prospects that the Blues had, I'm disappointed. If it was a no choice situation, I'm still disappointed Botterill made that trade. Not to drag the ROR saga in here, but come on Tage, you have to do better.

It isn't that specific play but he consistently makes the wrong decision or doesn't execute. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claude Balls Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 Seems Girgensons and Larson have lost what little grit they had. This team is softer than warm butter. At least Bogo still has at least one nut left. And we all thought Lindy castrated his teams? Seems Phil is doing the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montour was covering him, just not very well. No stick lift, body position was bad, that was a horrible goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said it time and again, we can get better 4th liners. Although I do tend to give Larsson some due given his ability from time to time to agitate the opponent. But Girgs, yea, he's pretty much useless at this point and time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His numbers are identical to Luke Adam's when Adam washed out the league. His continued presence in the lineup is a fireable offense for both the coach and GM.

It isn't that specific play but he consistently makes the wrong decision or doesn't execute. Where you only see Pilut’s good plays, it appears you only see Risto’s bad ones. Literally while you guys were complaining about him, he won a board battle, passed the puck up the boards and they got a shot on goal. He does it constantly. I know it’s not the pretty set play where everyone is doing loopy loops around our net to exit the zone, but it’s still a zone exit with possession.

This is one of those 9 year stretches...…………………………….and counting. All I can say, after going through the 70's, 80's, 90's, 00's and now on to the 20 is this, this to shall pass. But these 8 years since Pegula Sports Entertainment have taken over have easily become the worst in franchise history. Just poor decision making at nearly every level. It is what it is I'm afraid.
